http://www.london-eating.co.uk/22502.htm The Brackenbury Readers Reviews - London Eating en-gb Copyright: (C) London Eating I ate at the Brackenbury yesterday and had an excellent meal off the fixed menu. Sardine fritters, very nice and crisp. Then mussels in white wine, which my daughter and I both loved, followed by raspberry pud, forget wjhat, but very nice. VERY good service, lovely sunny day, under the awning on the pavement. Highly recommended. I hadn't been ... http://www.london-eating.co.uk/283.htm My wife and I went this week as it is our local. The welcome was warm and friendly by the two French waiters. The menu was uninspiring however with the Gruyere omelette having been on it for at least nine years! I had an OK starter of ham and gherkin ballotine. The main courses we chose were sea bass and tuna. My wifes sea bass was delicious. I ... http://www.london-eating.co.uk/283.htm The best restaurant in town. Gorgeous food, friendly staff, pleasant atmosphere. Highly recommended. http://www.london-eating.co.uk/283.htm First time visit on a very wet cold evening. Warm welcome, cosy dining room great food and service. Leek and potato soup 'as good as mine', lovely goats cheese risotto with interesting drizzle of tapenade, perfectly cooked cod and haddock mains. Good value wine list. With one scrumptious dessert and coffee; total bill with 12.5% sc was 75 ... http://www.london-eating.co.uk/283.htm Lunchtime, a Wednesday: set course lunch, £12.50. For this you get 2 (two) baby squid stuffed with about twenty grains of risotto each. Main course: char-grilled chicken with potatoes and white beans. The potatoes came in little cubes and, bizarrely, half of them were undercooked to the point of crunchiness. The chicken was fine. The ... http://www.london-eating.co.uk/283.htm Bad service, bad food and overpriced - a classic combination. Not sure why people rave about this restaurant as it offers nothing unique. We waited ten minutes before we were even offered a drink. Do not go to this restaurant if you want to a good time. http://www.london-eating.co.uk/283.htm Excellent food, good value winelist. The bill came in at £40 per head, for 3 courses and one bottle of wine, though I suspect that most of the well-heeled Brackenbury clientele aren't too bothered about cost. The decor is very homely, with wobbly tables, closely spaced in a small room, which means you can overhear everyone's conversation. ... http://www.london-eating.co.uk/283.htm We dined there on a saturday and were very happy with the whole experience. Service was just attentive enough, not overbearing, just as I like it, and this place defines cosiness in terms of its decor and ambiance. The food? Lovely. It's an eclectic menu that's for sure, but far from pompous. The other half's artichoke and almond soup won the ... http://www.london-eating.co.uk/283.htm I dined at the brackenbury on a busy saturday evening. All in all I left a little dissapointed. My starter of a truffled poached egg was overcooked ontop of a piece of burnt brioche cleverly hidden by the mushroom duxelle but still the charred flavour was apparent. It had a few token pieces of sliced truffle on top but no truffle flavour. ... http://www.london-eating.co.uk/283.htm Like eating food you wish you could cook in the posh sitting room you can't afford. Lovely intimate cosy atmosphere in winter, sunny terrace in summer. Good food all year round. Local favourite, but it never seems toooo busy, bizarrely. A more formal alternative to the Angelsea Arms, but less glitzy than Chez Kristof. http://www.london-eating.co.uk/283.htm
